    Only the really creative and imaginitive need apply! :eek:

    Logo needed for totally unique site(s). Don't want anything canned or "old".
    This should be a lot of fun and a challenge as well as some money and a portfolio addition.

    If we're REALLY blown away, then we're going to have more work needed and you get first right of refusal before we post here! (if you win, of course). :D

    Need by Oct 21. PM me for URL of the page with the CONTEST & LOGO SPECIFICATION DETAILS!
    Thanks,

    Mr. Unloadingzone

    I know you're new and all... but you're going tohave to give more detials
    than simply "I need a logo" because while some of us are good designers
    we're not mind readers :)

    Hi!

    That's why I put "PM me for the URL at the end...in re-reading it, it looks like I'm talking about the URL for the site, doesn't it? It's the URL for the details about the contest!

    I am new: I'm going to edit the post to clear that up. THANK YOU!

    A few reasons:

    1. I'm new so I looked at a couple of the other contests and they said to PM for details so I thought that's the way it was done here.

    2. People that take the time to PM for details are at least intrigued by my post: not just checking it out. I wanted to be able to anticipate roughly how many submissions I could get. The number of PM's I've received differs greatly with the number of hits on this thread.

    3. Since I'm new here and don't know the culture, I wanted to also see if my post was effective; if it inspired people or turned them off, and what to do to improve my chances (aside from offering a lot more money which I don't have) of getting what I'm looking for. I REALLY am excited about the new site and I REALLY want a special logo. I hope that's what I conveyed and PMing for the URL would help me judge that.

    4. I know this isn't the review section, but I'm so grateful to TightWad for her comment. If the original post was unclear to her, then I'm sure it was unclear to others too. I immediately edited it based on her advice. But 30 hits had gone by already.....did someone who would have been interested not PM because they took the original copy the same way TightWad did? I may have lost the design/designer I was looking for because of it.

    I PMed Biden to explain after I read his comment but it occurred to me that it might be good to post my reasons too in case anyone else had any suggestions. I am new here, this was my first contest post, and while obviously the contest is the most important thing to me right now, I WELCOME suggestions on the best way to post on Contests (or if I should even be using a different thread?)

    5. I'll need a lot of work in the future and I want my posts to be as Digital Point Community Friendly as possible. Please feel free to give me any feedback on my post, even though this isn't the Review section :) AND if you do/did PM me and I sent you the URL, did I give too much/not enough information or do you have suggestions for improving that?

    In short, I'm new here, I want to use this forum a lot (it's come very highly recommended), and I want to make my job requests and/or contests as Member-Friendly as possible.

    Sincerely, Larry; aka

    The site which is off-line as we're building it is named SnusCENTRAL.org

    And the URL where I have what I hope is all the info you need to design the logo including what the site is about, what the product is, resource link, and more is at http://larrywaters.blogspot.com/2008/10/logo-contest-information-15-with.html.

    If I missed anything, please PM me and let me know and I'll add it.

    Thanks! :D

    Thanks for the submission. Knowing snus was an advantage to you.

    No feedback until the judging is over except to say this for everyone's benefit:

    In the logo specifications at the Contest URL, it specifically says you can not use the word SNUS in all capital letters in the logo and explains why.

    It also says you allowed up to 6 submissions if you like. Totally up to the designers.

    By the way, you're going to love this site if you love Swedish snus! Win or lose, I expect to see you as one of our founding members! :D

    Sincerely, Larry
